What are the Melton Mowbray Building Society conveyancing panel criteria?
Unlike the CML the Building Society Mortgage Instructions deal with this. Section A.12 states ‘In order to act on our behalf your firm or company must be a member of our conveyancing panel provided we are a society that operates one – see specific requirements for details of our arrangements.
The Special Requirements state:
All conveyancers are subject to panel requirements and must be approved onto the Society's conveyancing panel. Please refer to the mortgage completions team if further information is required.
You must also comply with the terms and conditions of your Melton Mowbray Building Society solicitor panel appointment.
Why are Estate Agents using search tools to check if lawyers are on a lenders conveyancing panel ?
The fact of the matter is that estate agents are suffering if their clients start out on the buying process using a solicitor who is not on the panel with the purchaser’s chosen lender. Many conveyancing firms are only discovering when they begin working on a case that they are no longer able to work with that lender. Given the inevitable resultant delays in the transaction the chances of an abortive deal increases dramatically. in the circumstances there is understandable anguish on the part of the estate agent as a result of the lost time should the client have to change solicitors lawyers.
I noticed the following question on my PI renewal form this year ‘Has your Firm been asked by a lender to agree to more onerous terms and conditions than provided for in the BSA Mortgage Instructions?’ My firm is on numerous lender panels including the Melton Mowbray Building Society conveyancing panel. We have Terms and Conditions of appointment which we are duty bound to comply with. Do I disclose these these Terms?
The concern here is if you are expect to enter into ‘more onerous’ conditions that than the Handbook obligations.
You have to try and take an objective view as to whether the Terms relating to the Melton Mowbray Building Society conveyancing appointment (or other terms for other lenders) are ‘more onerous’ than the BSA Mortgage Instructions. Depending on the Terms you may need to provide details on your renewal form. If you are in any doubt please call your broker to discuss before moving forward on this question.
I have been a solicitor for over 20 years never having had a negligence claim and have been refused acceptance on the Melton Mowbray Building Society conveyancing panel with no explanation. Am I not entitled to know why?
Participation on the lender's panel of conveyancers is at the absolute
discretion of the the lender. The days of open panels are now long
gone. Many lenders reserve the right to accept or reject any
application without giving any reason. You should check your original

The CML Handbook includes instructions for a roof with a solar panel. Melton Mowbray Building Society do not seem to have any similar obligations via the BSA Mortgage Instructions. Is this right?
The BSA Mortgage Instructions don't
specifically deal with Solar Panels but it would be prudent as
approved solicitors for Melton Mowbray Building Society to raise the issue
with them (as you would if the UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook applied). In any event you
need to raise the appropriate questions for your buyer client.
What lender panels do you receive the most questions about?

frequency of questions. The most popular lender panels in terms of
questions are as follows:
